Re: Norvell leaving Memphis for FSU

I know WF promised Dauphine more carries but this did not happen. I am fine with Hall but am confident if he does leave the sun will rise the next day nonetheless.

And, I don’t think Norvell will offer Hall OC for FSU.

Re: Norvell leaving Memphis for FSU

At least Memphis promoted the new HC from within, so that would end all of the Will Hall to Memphis nonsense on there internet. WH to FSU more likely.

Re: 2020 football recruiting

Currently 3rd in the AAC behind Cinci (two 4 stars!) and ECU (right behind them, but they have 21 commits, 2 more than us). Cinci, Ucf, Memphis have higher per recruit averages, just fewer recruits. It would be interesting to create a composite aggregating everyone still on the team for their star ...

Re: Norvell leaving Memphis for FSU

No idea how it will turn out but it looks like they gave in to the notion of hire someone who will stay rather than the best coach available. Could turn out to be in our favor. Hiring “someone who will stay” as opposed to the “best man” for the job is exactly what we did in 1980 for saying no to Li...

Despite all of the angst in this thread , I see no surprises here. We’ve always been a stepping stone for coaches here. However, we’ve become even more of one when a 60 year old coach attempts to bolt with his marginal record with us. Most probable scenario is that he wants out period. Probably tir...
